    Who uses a manufacturers out of date Sat Nav with kak interface  when you have Google Maps or Waze?  
    I do, it updates regularly and reroutes due to traffic via WiFi similar to waze. Its also integrated and touch screen and voice command (which works) so safer to use. It also uses none of my data or phone battery and there's no need for an unsightly view obstructing phone holder.

    All the cars I've had in the last 8 years or so have had sat nav built in (4 cars), I didnt know you could get a car without one now?
    Easily.

    Entry-spec Fiestas and Corsas don't include nav. And that's just two of the best-selling cars on the UK market...

    Luckily, if you live in The Part of The Country That Doesn't Matter (i.e. not London) then there are so few new roads built that the maps from 1996 are still fine ;)
    I live in London. Can you tell me where to find all these new roads?

    Me for one.
    It cost £2000, I'm using it.  :smile: 

    Wow just wow!!
    Just ask how much for a manufacturer replacement :)
    £200 is more like what it is worth, having that, Leds instead of proper bulbs, aluminium wheels and the autobox put the thick end of £4000 on the price of my car- I'd have expected £1500 or so for the auto.

    They see you coming with trim levels once you move up from Poverty Spec. :)

    I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....

    (except air quality and Medical Science ;))

    Ah right, not the type of car I'd look at, still surprising though, next you be telling me that they dont have heated seats and steering wheel as standard!
